  • the configuration of 1 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3.
  • Illumination light having a directivity in one direction is created by one light guiding plate, and two such illumination lights are stacked, thereby achieving an illumination device capable of time sharing driving in two directions and making it possible to reduce the crosstalk in each direction.
  • the configuration of 2 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3.
  • a second light flux exiting from the second light guiding plate can be transmitted through the first light guiding plate, such that two light guiding plates can be used in a stacked state. This makes it possible to remove the unevenness of illumination in each of the light guiding plates and provide the effects of image quality improvement.
  • the configuration of 3 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 4 and FIG. 8.
  • the second light flux exiting from the second light guiding plate can be transmitted through the first light guiding plate, and there are provided optically flat parts, such that two light guiding plates can be used in a stacked state while the directivity of each light guiding plate is maintained. This makes it possible to remove the unevenness of illumination in each of the light guiding plates, reduce the influence on the crosstalk, and provide the effects of image quality improvement.
  • the configuration of 4 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5.
  • the light from the light source can be transmitted to the end face of the light guiding plate owing to the total internal reflection effects in the flat surface portion provided in the rear surface of the first light guiding plate. Moreover, the light exits at a proper angle from the front surface of the light guiding plate owing to the total internal reflection effects in the plurality of slope portions that are arranged.
  • the configuration of 5 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 8.
  • Light from a direction which the first light source is in can only enter the exit surface in the light guiding plate, so that the light exiting from the exit surface has a directivity to exit in a particular direction, thus reducing the crosstalk.
  • the configuration of 6 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 5.
  • the slope portions have to have proper angles for the exit from the light guiding plate at the proper angle. For example, if ⁇ is equal to or more than 45 degrees, the illumination light to exit in the first observation direction illuminates even the second observation direction, and becomes the cause of the crosstalk. Further, if n•cos2 ⁇ > 1, even the light totally internally reflected by the slope portions is totally internally reflected by the front surface of the light guiding plate and can not escape from the light guiding plate. Thus, when ⁇ ⁇ 45 degrees and n•cos2 ⁇ ⁇ 1, it is possible to obtain a light guiding plate with a little crosstalk and high efficiency in the use of light.

  • the second light guiding plate has a shape different from that of the first light guiding plate or has a surface shape with a periodic structure different from that of the first light guiding plate.
  • the configuration of 9 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 12.
  • the second light guiding plate which is the lower one of the stacked light guiding plates does not necessarily have to have a structure which transmits light entering from the rear surface, and it is therefore possible to use the most reliable and low-cost backlight method in which the second observer direction is only illuminated. Moreover, when the first light guiding plate and the second light guiding plate have the same shape, the influence of Moire fringes is caused in some cases, but this can be reduced if the first light guiding plate and the second light guiding plate have different shapes or periodic structures.
  • the configuration of 10 corresponds to, for example, FIG. 4 and FIG. 8.
  • the two light guiding plates having different directivities are combined, but if the first light guiding plate is horizontally reversed, the second light guiding plate can be used in the same shape as the first light guiding plate. Therefore, it is not necessary to newly prepare one more kind of light guiding plate, thus providing the effects of cost reduction.
